About

In an age of roaming monsters, maniacal wizards, and tyrant kings, adventuring is one of the more stable forms of income if you can manage to stay alive.

Loot the Body is a semi-cooperative strategic card game. Players work together to survive the dungeon while fighting to acquire the largest treasure horde. The best loot goes to the players who deal the most damage to monsters and quickly uncover treasures.

Semi-cooperative - Players rely on one another for survival.

Competitive looting - Outdo your teammates to gain the most treasure.

Strategic, quick decision making - Players must decide which is the best card to use and act quickly or face receiving penalties.

Extremely replayable - 28 dungeon cards and 5 playable characters with unique abilities make every journey into the dungeon a new adventure.

For 2-5 Players. 20-30 minutes. Ages 10+.

Dungeon Cards

Prototype Playthrough

Loot the Body comes with two ways to play. Standard and Mayhem Mode. Standard is the fast paced streamline no nonsense dungeon assault we all love. Mayhem Mode introduces a bit more chaos into those carefully made attack plans of yours. Both versions are included with the Kickstarter printing of the game.

If we reach the $18K Stretch goal we will add in new Deadlier Dungeon Cards. This new card type will make the dungeon even deadlier than before with all new monster abilities, traps, monster power ups, and player interaction. This variant is for those serious dungeon delvers that crave something a little bit meatier, and probably with more teeth, in their dungeon.

Exclusive Characters

All unlocked player characters and dungeon monsters are exclusive to this Kickstarter printing of Loot the Body. These pieces are only available if you pledge as part of this campaign.

Help decide what additional monsters and characters should be in the game by participating in our social sites. We will be choosing new Monster Pack themes, playable characters, monsters, and loot cards. Participate in the conversation and get your favorites in the game. Find us on Facebook and Twitter for more details.

Every stretch goal we reach will reveal a new goal.

Character Card Upgrade Mockup

Updated character cards for the $20K stretch goal will allow players to track health and attack damage even easier with built in dials.

We are very proud of the beautiful monster and character designs by our Illustrator Alex Trayanoff. Alex is a long time board and video game enthusiast with credits on several popular video game titles. His art has been a featured part of our game since the earliest prototype versions. Card layout and design was done by Jason Bice.

Risks and challenges

We have setup partnerships for both production and global fulfillment of Loot the Body. With the exception of a few pieces of expansion art, all game elements have been completed and are ready to be provided to the manufacturers. The game will be ready for printing once we receive funds from Kickstarter.

As a small publishing company, we rely on Kickstarter backers to supply the capital necessary to meet minimum printing and shipping costs. Your pledges make this project come to print. We will produce a quality product and it will be delivered on time. Should there be any issues with game parts in your copy of Loot the Body! simply let us know and we will get you fresh replacements.

With the help of amazing backers like you, we will bring Loot the Body to life.
